/lit/ - Literature

hahah I bough this book and now I have court on friday

>>19258488
I know a guy who really liked this book. He was a chronic 4chan user who didn’t usually read books, and a high school dropout. Make of that what you will

>>19258527
quick rundown anon? No retard actually wrote something advocating violence did they?

>>19258535
i know a libtard
he upvoted your post
make of that what you will

>>19258535
>I know a guy who really liked this book. He was a chronic 4chan user who didn’t usually read books, and a high school dropout. Make of that what you will
thats the jist i'm getting.
but it might actually be good.

>3 posters
really made me think

>>19258488
>is this any good?
You tell me, Mike

>>19258488
It's the best book to come off /lit/ and considerably weaker than the material that inspired it. There's also little unique about it or Ma's other book.

Book 2 sucks, comes off too vain and narcissistic 3/10

>>19258488
is this the one by the edgy Chinese guy ?

It's great it's great. Go read all of the book and don't let the retards here tell you otherwise. Don't waste more time just do it.

>>19258488
Mike is a literal tranny

>>19260003
I'd still let him poz me desu

It probably fucking sucks, i dropped it in the second chapter because i was cringing way too hard
H.A is good if you don't take it seriously

>>19259957
Stfu loser stop promoting your shit book here

even arguing about if a book might be good or not when it is this fucking cheap to buy really makes my almonds realign as to what kind of lowlife basement dwelling retards this boards is made of
imagine making such bad decisions in life that you end up having to argue about dropping five bucks on a book or not

>>19260291
the book sucks so bad that you have to shill it here biweekly

>>19260352
never shilled shit, nigger
seems you lack reading comprehension
also not your boogeyman, libtard

>>19260369
>also not your boogeyman, libtard
He says as he makes his adversary a boogeyman.

>>19260474
its called irony, fren

>>19258488
I honestly miss Mike on instagram

>>19260291
but i could spend that $5 on a different book

>>19260825
Or both

>>19260291
well cant argue with that
just bought 12 copies

Why does this thread not believe in finishing their sentences with a period?

>>19258488
i bought it because the pine tree party was neat but idk anything about the guy
>>19261631
zoom zoom

>>19258488
Haven't read it but if it's shilled on /pol/ it's probably shit. They never shill good books.

>>19260291
thanks I just pirated it

>>19261836
i heard he uploads the pdf s himself and changes random parts of texts
just a heads up, pal

>>19258488
Meh I thought it was kind of retarded. His writing is generally pretty bad and it's hard to follow. I really just bought the book to support him.

>>19258488
am checking it out, the opening part is really neat and it seems to have soul, which is more than what can be said for most books nowadays

>>19262493
alright im on page 24 and god damn this is good, theres just something about it that draws you in, the weird references to real world celebrities and the hilariously accurate depiction of hollywood culture is just great, theres something so captivating in this like its an /x/ shizopost but with proper grammar and is cogent enough to be enjoyable to read, i might just buy this shit if the insanely autistic author will make more
>ibn4 being called mike/ a shill

>>19262000
He definitely does this bc I have a physical copy and the pdf is completely different with huge parts missing. Smart move honestly

>>19262602
It's good but the fags on this board are too poor/pretentious to actually read it and see that

>>19258488
give me a plot summary and i will consider reading this book

>>19263061
Terrorist surfers annex florida and turn it into an amish colony. Also lots of stuff about women and sex with chubby girls

>>19260291
Image would be 10x better if she wasn't wearing shoes and 100x better with hose that was thinner or absent
oh the wasted potential

Any book that is self-published and obnoxiously self-shilled on lit is guaranteed to be shit tbqh.

Except Gardner, which ironically is the only example of "so bad it's good" I've ever seen in temrs of books.

>>19263135
>implying that the complete faggots who own and operate real publishing houses are insufferable pussies who would throw real shit away in favor of some LGBT novel they know will sell

Self-published novels are the future, granted they are well written. Media jews/lgbt people will censor anything of substance

>>19263176
*arent

>>19263176
There's so much self-published shit out there with single-digit downloads or none at all that it just seems like an exercise is self-torture for all the effort it takes to actually write a book.

I actually got an online publishing deal with a company and the book only has a few thousand views, if it was self-published it'd probably have <500

>>19263204
Ma's books were both best sellers so they cant have been doing too bad. I mean the first book has 750 reviews or something

>>19262602
>the weird references to real world celebrities and the hilariously accurate depiction of hollywood culture is just great
he is ripping off bret easton ellis' glamorama. you'd know that if you had any interest in literature

>>19263228
GV is better than Glamorama

>>19263135
>>19263176
There is good and evil to both. I think we will see more of this nature in the years to come.

bump

>>19262602
>the weird references to real world celebrities
that'll age well.

Good book, worth reading

>>19258488
he has nothing new or interesting to say. Treating your tweets like art is the biggest downfall of this crowd.

>>19265832
Wrong its a good book

>>19258488
Harassment Architecture was good, this was more of the same which made it a bit stale but not necessarily bad
>>19259883
this, there was some retarded narcissism

Don't pirate the book you fucking faggots. Buy it.

i pirated it and hand it out to edgy middle schoolers just because the author is such a humongous faggot

>>19258488
got about halfway through this book and then decided i would read the rest at another time, then the last half got wet and is now hard to read

>>19258488
I visited the amazon page for it. Once. Pic related is what the algorithm figured I would like afterwards.
That the book is shilled on /pol/ is conclusive proof that it is crine. With pic related, this conclusive evidence gets backed up by literal AI, meaning that without a doubt, the book is the most superlative cringe imaginable -

>>19266982
oh no no no, libtards
imma post marxism book on the /pol/
oh hohoho
it is now conclusive it be the cringe
cause le boogeyman ohoho

>>19266982
whats targeted individual? never heard of it.

>>19260291
my time is even more important than my money

I don't know about this but Harassment Architecture got old very quickly. I read enough seething like that on here, I don't need it in a book form.

>>19268729
>time important
>posts here
choose one

the time you wasted on this thread would easily add up to reading his first book

>>19260291
Twitter faggots are the maga equivalent of #giveyourmoneytowomen

>>19262602
Yeah it's probably one of the top 20 books of all time.
He's our Thrasymachus.

>>19266982
I like how mystery grove puts a glownigger on the cover.

>>19269635
at no other point in time people wanted money for books they wrote lol
no one is forcing u 2 buy it, libtard

>>19260291
let's say the book is about 250 pages long, that's about 3 hours of reading. If i hate it, and read it anyway, that would mean that 3 hours of my time are worth 5 dollars, that's way below minimal wage, and simply not worth it.
I get more out of shittalking it

>>19262000
>those dysgenic eyes, jawbone and neanderthal like features
yikes

>>19262000
desu this doesn't make a difference to me

how does one man make all of /leftylit/ cope so god damn hard? lol

>>19258488
3/10. A disappointment after HA, which was actually a funny book. Mike can't write prose or dialogue for shit, guess what he fills this book with?
Mike also can't stop sharing his ultra retarded opinion on things like raw milk and not taking a shower. Comes across as whiny, like a little boy whose mom told him to take a shower and is refusing.
If you're really interested in reading this book, just read Harassment Architecture. HA is a better use of your money and time.

>>19269864
couldnt read your response, have to save time for reading Gothic Violence (a great book btw)

>>19258488
i got the epub for harassment architecture and its just a compilation of ramblings trying too hard to be like those u see on 4chan. mike ma probably didnt write most of it btw

>>19269651
?
What are you even referring to? No book in that screenshot is by Mystery Grove.

>>19272087
ok, incel

Bought it, time to see why it makes this board so furious

>>19270479
Disagree, HA is the whiny one and Gothic Violence is composed while being hard hitting

>>19272070
>mike ma probably didnt write most of it
qrd?

>>19269869
post face

>>19260291
This isn't a reason to buy it, it's just autism.

I find it really funny that Mahoney bandies around the hypermasculine aesthetic because it's obvious that he's gay. He even fantasizes about conducting a copycat Pulse nightclub shooting in Harassment Architecture when the real life perpetrator had been a self-hating homosexual. Ma's work is interesting only as unintentional metafiction where the author must reject his identity for fear it will consume him. Undertones of homoeroticism were also present in Fight Club and American Psycho, his clear literary influences

no u, also filtered

>>19272380
Sorry to break it to you but if you found any "undertones of homoeroticism" in either of those books, you're probably the faggot here LOL. Congrats on coming out though gg

>>19272380
>weeb tripfag thinks everyone has to be gay

>>19273009
I'm a bisexual woman and Bret Easton Ellis himself is gay. Not my fault you can't analyze literature. Or let me guess, you haven't even read the books and think watching the movies or wikipedia is sufficient
>>19273014
Mike Ma is a crossdresser

>>19273021
Putting on girls clothes and dancing around your apartment doesnt make you a woman, tripfag. I almost feel bad for you and the porn-addled brain that causes you to see "homoeroticism" in perfectly normal things

>>19273206
I've posted my picture here before lmao
Eat shit

>>19273211
Sorry I dont come on this basket weaving site enough to have your full dossier, tranny. And dont repost it i dont want to see some hairy jewish guy in womens clothing tonight, or ever

>>19273239
i-i'm not that hairy mike

>>19273265
Are you filipina?

>>19273305
why the fuck does everyone say this. I'm Native American
Also Mike your writing sucks but if you aren't gay then get in touch expeditiously

>>19269864
>about 250 pages long, that's about 3 hours of reading
h-haha yeah 3 hours...

>>19273321
its ok anon, read at your pace

>>19273313
>I'm Native American
That's way more interesting, where are you from?
I'm not mike ma but if you want to dress me up then post feet and I'll see what I can do

>>19273405
there's so much to say about this but i'm simply not good enough is how i'll sum it up, brother

>>19273265
>retard posts pics on 4chan to prove ??? to autists
what's it like being so stupid?

>>19273313
Everybody knows Mike only likes chubby white latinas

we like mike

>>19273607
fuck off mike

@19273265
>subhuman thinks its opinion is important
dayum goblin go be a nigger somewhere else

I don't read writers younger than me

>>19258488
harassment architecture is better but its still pretty good

>>19269869
>neandrathal
>dysgenic
>he doesn't know

>>19274183
In absolute age or age at publication?

>>19258488
Mike Ma is a CIA asset in all likelihood. If you buy this book you'll get put on The List.

>>19275622
Based, I too prefer to live my life in fear of being put on The List. Before doing anything, I ask myself, "will this land me on The List?" and if the answer is "maybe" or above, I don't do it.

>>19258488
Mike please stop posting I will never read your book

>>19275622
Hows he a CIA asset, real question

>>19263067
Like actual chubby girls or land whales?

>>19272225
Mike's numerous rants about everything from gluten to raw milk to not showering are the opposite of composed and hard-hitting. At least in HA, he hid that shit on the final page of the book. Also, it's not hard-hitting if he can't actually land a blow.

>>19275622
What a shame to get put on the list for such a boring book

Haven't read this one but Harassment Architecture is definitely a fedpost. Ends with an "accelerationist" call-to-action

>>19276845
he said "bazinga" at the end, so it's fine
learn to take a joke, libtard

bump

Fucking garbage, written by a giga pseud who clearly has a need to be heard, but who has nothing to say at all.
It reeks of an attention seeking pseud who wants nothing more than to be paraded and known as not just an intellectual, but some form of gross misinterpretation of Evola's warrior priest. It is still clear that he has never read nor engaged the traditionalists either.

Do not read this shit, read Guenon, and if you thought that this trash was good, then read whatever the fuck you want because your ngmi.

>>19278505

>It reeks of an attention seeking pseud who wants nothing more than to be paraded and known as not just an intellectual
lmao you're actually retarded if you genuinely believe mike fucking ma wants to be seen as an intellectual.

owo

good book!

Keep reading epic and based trad twitter e-celebrities
Don't read anything of real acclaim, you will just shit it up with your vulgar politicization of everything you come across

>>19278505

tell me you never read Mike Ma without telling me you never read Mike Ma

>>19258488
>mike ma
Don't read chinese demagoguery

>>19281872
still laughing at your bro, mike ma doesn't even present himself as a trad
imagine missing the point of a shitpost in book form this hard, you're literally 30 IQ points lower than what you think you are.

>>19282957
>still laughing at your bro
who?

>>19258488
Pirated it, read a few pages, realized that it is very very mediocre and cringy, then spread around the pdf to make sure people didn't buy it

i used to talk to this dude on instagram and he is mostly just a normal guy with an odd sense of humor. i had several normie tier irl friends read HA after me and they all thought it was satire. take that as you will.

>>19284178
What does an eceleb do next after being deplatformed so thoroughly?

I loved HA but didn’t enjoy this one as much. Struggled to follow what was going on and didn’t get a lot of the modern references nor the celebrities. HA was the superior work and this one is just a Netflix knock off.
